Game Description

Like the same-titled release for N-Gage, Gameloft's Asphalt: Urban GT for Nintendo DS features licensed model automobiles in races through three-dimensional city environments. Players slide behind the wheels of virtual vehicles from manufacturers such as Audi, Hummer, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Volkswagen, and others. More than 30 aspects of each car can be tweaked and fine-tuned. The main driving action is displayed on the handheld's top screen, while progress information and other details are displayed below. Up to four Asphalt: Urban GT Nintendo DS players can race against one another in a selection of wireless multiplayer modes.

Asphalt Urban GT is a racing video game for the Nintendo DS and the Nokia N-Gage handheld video game consoles. It was developed by Gameloft and published by Ubisoft, and released on November 21, 2004, making it one of the DS launch titles. It has support for wireless multiplayer with up to four opponents, and takes advantage of the DS's support for 3D graphics (while showing unaccelerated N-Gage's power to match DS's graphics), showing the action from three camera angles. Replays are also available. The bottom screen of the DS is utilized to provide strategic tips and player information.

The game sports nine tracks modelled after real-world locations such as Paris and New York City. The game's 23 cars are licensed from real manufacturers such as Lamborghini, Hummer, Volkswagen, and others, and can be enhanced with over 30 addons.

A sequel to the game was later released.
